Podalyria argentea Salisb. is a species of flowering plant in the legume family (Fabaceae or Leguminosae), native to the Cape Province of South Africa.[1]

It should not be confused with Podalyria argentea Willd., which is a synonym for a quite different species, Ammodendron bifolium (Pallas) Yakovlev, from Russia and Xinjiang, China.[2]
